Model Analysis of Debt-to-Equity Ratio for Growth Firm from the Perspective of Supply Chain
The debt-to-equity swap is an important way to reduce the leverage ratio of enterprises in the new economic situation.However,the market-oriented debt-to-equity swap falls into the dilemma of"more signing and less landing",which greatly reduces its implementation effect.Present study constructs a debt-to-equity model for growth supplier in debt crisis under the perspective of supply chain,investigates the optimal swap ratio of AMC and operational decision of supplier,and analyses the swap conditions as well as the effect of multi-player game.The results are as follows:Firstly,the AMC chooses to convert all the debt to equity under high P/E ratio,but sets the swap ratio at the minimum value that the supplier is willing to adopt the debt-to-equity swap under low P/E ratio.Secondly,the reasonable matching of high growth and high P/E ratio is conducive to the implementation of the swap and the achievement of win-win situation,while the mismatch of high growth and low P/E ratio can only resolve the debt crisis but cannot improve supplier profitability.However,the low growth supplier should not be the target enterprise of debt-to-equity swap.Finally,the multi-player game behavior is detrimental to the benefits of the supplier and AMC,and even causes to the"prisoner's dilemma"for low-growth supplier,which increased the difficulty in implementing debt-to-equity swap.
